Wimdu (Cozy room + Wi-Fi), Hamburg, Germany Reviews

We booked and paid for all of our flats in Europe, four months in advance to avoid the rush. A flat cost the same as a hostel but you get your own bedroom and a key to lock up. What could go wrong?

We booked Wimdu because Airbnb was not available in our two German cities. After you book with Wimdu or Airbnb they give you the contact information for your host and exact flat address. (Both Airbnb and Wimdu add a service fee with booking and for their fine service.)

We were in Bremen and had less than two days before our booking in Hamburg and the poop hit the fan. We got an email from Wimdu casually telling us that our booking in Hamburg was canceled, without any explanation. We called from Bremen the host Eva in Hamburg and she told us that four months ago she broke off ties with Wimdu and there was nothing there for Wimdu to book. I believe Eva cuz Wimdu would not try to explain why so close to our booking we were canceled and it was "to bad-so sad".

We were in a definate bind because all the reasonable flats were booked. We finally found a flat on Wimdu that we booked and stayed in Hamburg. That turned out to be a very miserable and unreasonable bad deal with Wimdu and host. We spent 5 days and nights in Hamburg and paid for five days at flat. After two days there at flat it was so miserable that we forfited our booking at flat and paid for another three days elsewhere.
